Installing the vertical stabilizer
❑
19. Mix 1/4oz. (7.5ml) of 30-minute epoxy to glue
the vertical stabilizer in place. Using a mixing stick,
apply epoxy to the top of the horizontal stabilizer
through the vertical stabilizer slot. Apply epoxy to the
sides and bottom surfaces of the fin base that have
balsa wood exposed. Insert the vertical stabilizer into
the slot, making sure the fin root is seated firmly on
the horizontal stabilizer. Check for a perpendicular
angle between the fin and the stabilizer when viewed
from the front. It is critical that the fin remains
perpendicular while the epoxy is curing. T-pins or
masking tape may be required to hold the fin during
this time.
